Capt.
John T. West and 1Lt. Ronnie G. Lindstrom were co-pilots of an F4D Phantom
which departed as second aircraft in a flight of two from Ubon AB on 02JAN70
on an operational mission over Laos.

As
the Aircraft were near the Sepone River in Savannakhet Province, about 10
miles from the border of South Viet Nam, West and Lindstromís aircraft was
seen to crash.† The flight leader saw the aircraft descend and saw the
wreckage on the ground, but observed no parachutes.† No emergency radio
beeper signals were heard to indicate that West and Lindstrom safely ejected
from the aircraft.
